The wine
San Cobate is made with a careful selection in the vineyard of grapes from four different areas of the estate, which are very interesting due to their differences in altitude, orientation and soil. It begins its ageing in Burgundian barrels and finishes in French and Austrian oak vats of more than 15 years old.
Bigarreau cherry red colour with garnet reflections. Fruity aromas of ripe fruit on the nose. Notes of ageing with oak wood in the background and balsamic and spicy hints. In the mouth it is powerful but with a good balance between maturity and freshness. Sweet tannins, structured. Elegant and enveloping finish.
